This is probably going to be more comical for those who know me, but I thought it might at least bring a laugh to someone.
Earlier this week, shortly after my son laid down for his nap, I went in to take a shower. All of a sudden I started hearing what sounded like a banging noise, almost like someone was trying to break in our house. Given that there have been a few day time break ins in the area, I wasn't going to take any chances. I jumped out of the shower and grabbed my robe, my husband's AR-15 and some ammo. By this point in time adrenaline is running and thoughts aren't exactly the most clear.
As I'm slowly creeping into the living room, I realize that the noises I were hearing weren't the sound of someone breaking in, but it was the artillery being shot from post. Since we live a ways out, we don't normally hear it, so it wasn't something I really thought about when I first heard the noise.
I headed back to the bedroom, cleared the weapon and got back in the shower. I was thinking though... you know that would be a crappy way to go - the last thing you see is a pregnant woman in a robe with an AR.
